"With its innovative GPON solution, FlexLight has developed a very cost-effective way to break the bottleneck that exists in the last mile and, when used in combination with Atrica's Optical Ethernet System, can offer carriers a comprehensive solution for delivery of Ethernet-based services to business customers."
